3 v [ms -1 ] t [s] u v gradient = a = v-u t t v = u + at 1

4 v [ms -1 ] t [s] u v t

5 v [ms -1 ] t [s] u v u + v 2 t s = (u + v) x t 2 s = (u + v) x t 2 2

6 1 2 Rearrange Eq to make ‘v’ the subject Substitute ‘v’ into Eq giving ‘s’ in terms of ‘u’, ‘a’ and ‘t’ s = ut + ½at 2

7 1 2 Rearrange Eq to make ‘t’ the subject Substitute ‘t’ into Eq giving ‘s’ in terms of ‘u’, ‘a’ and ‘v’ v 2 = u 2 + 2 as Rearrange this to now make ‘v 2 ’ the subject

8 v [ms -1 ] t [s] u v t v = u + at s = (u + v) x t 2 s = (u + v) x t 2 s = ut + ½at 2 v 2 = u 2 + 2 as Can you derive all these from this graph?

9 Ticker timer Frequency of 50Hz, therefore Time period of _____ s Drop mass off bench, attached to tape Measure distance between dots Work out velocity Record your results in a table Plot a graph to calculate acceleration

10 Velocity-time graph A mountain biker accelerates uniformly down a ramp taking 10s to reach 20m/s. They stay at 20m/s for the next 30s of the course. They then take 5s to slow down to 10m/s as they enter the technical, steep part of the track. They stay at 10m/s for the next 20 seconds. Breaking out of the woods they accelerate to 30m/s in 5s as they hit the high speed part of the course. They maintain 30m/s for the next 20s. They cross the finish line and it takes them 5s to come to a stop. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSqj8c8LaBQ&feature=related

11 Group work Explain how experiments carried out by Galileo overturned Aristotle’s ideas of motion.

12 Projectile Motion

13 Objective Use the suvat equations to calculate the motion of an object that is moving with horizontal and vertical components of velocity.

14 What to do.... Draw a diagram if possible. List any assumptions made (e.g. air resistance negligible) Split motion into its vertical and horizontal components. Write down what you do know for s,u,v,a and t for each component (‘t’ often the same for both) Solve equation, giving the answer to an appropriate number of significant figures. Sit back and relax.

15 A student, after impressing their friends with their drinking prowess, decides they may be feeling a bit queasy. After going outside to ‘get some air’ they feel a bit better. Then, while standing upright and facing forwards, the drink returns. If the cider/WKD/Stella initially leaves at 5 ms -1 horizontally.... What assumptions and estimations will you make? How long does it take to hit the ground? How far does it go? What is the velocity when it hits the ground (size and direction)? When do they next decide to drink alcohol again?
